Quote: *sigh* I didn't, a fox or racoon or somesuch did. the replacement order for sandhill came in this week and we weren't ready for it. we had to shuffle everyone around who was in brooders and coops and such and I left wednesday forgetting to put down a layer of cinderblocks around the...

Hey guys I've been informed that I need to downgrade the flock, so I have a bunch of babies available really low cost available 10 Buff orpingtons, 10 Blue Laced Red Wyandottes and 5 Silver Penciled Wyandottes. All straight run, and from Sandhill Preservation. They hatched on Tuesday, so they...

Quote: This is true of the Roo's as well. We have hawks and ours do a wonderful job of warning of the hawks. Of course, at the moment we have too many and need to eat a couple, and won't that be fun!

Quote: to be honest, and some people are going to probably hate me for this one, we just let ours free range. They watch for hawks on their own, and the roosters do a good job of getting the girls under cover and keeping them there. we (and the next door neighbors) have lost one or two to...

I think we still have some laying around somewhere, i'd have to actively look for them we only had five and I don't know how many we have left, but I can always drop them in the mail box

Quote: Thanks! And I am so glad I did not see this earlier. I would have driven all the way down and spent waaay too much on wyandottes and barred rocks however, I went to the murdochs in westminster and got 3 Sagitta Pullets (what the hell are these anyways?) five pearl white leghorns and...

Quote: This is true, and I got them gone! The gal met me in Johnsons Corner, and took them back to wyoming with her Thanks guys! (gals!)

Quote: know of anyone who would want them?

Quote: no, although I was expecting it. we are apparantly in a snow free bowl between two snow systems

Quote: i tend to take my frustration out on inanimate objects (like the wall or the cupboard doors ) less chance of bein thrown in jail that way sorry you have to take a hiatus from your project. I know how frustrating that can be. I've been trying to get hoop coops built but I keep...

Quote: and to the thread! we have wyandottes, they do really well and lay eggs nicely. our Easter Egger gives us a bluish egg every day or every other day

Quote: oooh, wish I had known sooner! we have a wyandotte that started a nest on thursday. by this weekend that would be too much of a gap/difference.

Quote: ===== If you don't get a taker, you could put them in a large gallon baggie and hit it several times with a rolling pin. Won't go to waste that way. Just a thought. I quit buying pellets, it seems to be too big for the bantams so I switched to crumbles. I mixed them together and the...

I am going but SO has a manager meeting so he won't be. I've been told that unless it is something wildly unusual I cannot bring it home. Also I cannot bring home anything that is not a chicken. Period. Somebody has learned from every other trip we've taken and gotten very specific I wonder...
